Going offshore to escape the CFTC

80% stop out level on their pro account is a killer, with lmfx they stop level is 15% at 250 leverage is like 400:1 leverage only problem max trade is 4 million if i wanna do over 4 million i have to drop my leverage down to 100:1, spreads are better but not a major factor in my trading as long at they reasonable .

You can choose classic account, which is what I did,its stop level is 15%.

i know but those spreads are to wide for me on classic account

If you add commissions for pro account, the total cost for both accounts are almost same.

have you notice the price move faster on the pro account, yes same on some pairs but not all

My experience in Forex is that Coinexx quotes during News Events do
not regularly stop functioning… So you may pick and choose your
"nail in the coffin" or “deal breaker” for any given broker;
it’s your choice or even an “fx-choice” if you like :slight_smile:

When Trading News at any broker, do not be “chasing”. Rather,
be in your position either before, or after the volatility settles down.
For me, I’m in early with an offer, since I believe I can predict the direction
from analytics… otherwise, I’d be guessing :frowning: which is not recommended !

Maybe you connection is better than mine?
My coinexx quote is always delayed during big news.

btw my list are brokers i trust and not to keep all my money with one offshore broker. so far im hitting home runs with offshore brokers and was able to escape tallinex and capital city markets before they became scam brokers :joy:

EDIT: i also check forums every day the main part i review if a trader post they haven’t receive their withdrawal i then go to my broker and ask them to address the issue and they always do.

That is why I paid great attention to your list.
Save a lot of my home work.
Thanks for your good job.

So many variables here. Using MT4 or using MT5 ?
Lots of symbols selected, generating "saturation traffic"
on your downlink? All of these factors matter…

Get a dedicated server at a good provider, and you’ll
most likely not have these problems… well, maybe not…

So many things in this forum unspecified like that are
comparing things like “apples” with things like “oranges” ?? LOL :slight_smile:

Less than 10 symbols and same setup on both accounts.
One works one doesn’t.
I use MT5 at coinexx, but MT4 at FXchoice.
This is only difference.

MT5 is a huge memory hog, since I run NJ4X which
creates individual process instances, and I had to drop
back to MT4 since MT5 was such a hoglet, and uses
RAM like Trump uses Twitter… (whatever that means…)

That explains the Coinexx disadvantage in your case,
at least to my satisfaction. Far less consistent than MT4.

[EDIT] just check this out MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 Memory and Data Loading Management Comparison - MetaTrader 5 - General - MQL5 programming forum

[EDIT2] This is the horrible prospect which faces my operation,
that MetaQuotes is forcibly discontinuing MT4, and that means I’ll
have to provide 3-4x the memory on my servers if I’m forced to
use MT5… which is unfortunately inevitable… :frowning:

For the same pairs, FXchoice swap cost is 3 times that of coinexx.

Yes, I remember I used to use MT4 at coinexx, the quote was much better than MT5 during big news time. But still there was slight delay.

But for my trading MT5 is much more convenient and useful than MT4.

If you’re trading 4 million+ dollars profitably on high leverage currencies, SmallPaul, then that of course is really impressive, especially if you started with a tiny amount less than 5 years ago.

ugh i hope they dont discontinue mt4, i can’t find a bot for mt5 that does what hedge ea does

You can find people to port them over on the various, Metatrader forums. If it’s profitable for you, might be worth the investment.

Friendly advice from personal experience… If you rely on it, get a version working on another platform now while you have the old one to compare it against. This will give you time to adjust and perfect the new one. Never allow a single point of failure…

i noticed you didn’t mention TradersWay or Turnkey in your list – can you share your personal experience with them?

my main broker is FX Choice, looking to branch out soon

tradersway is ok but to many fake spikes and other little things, i was with them for a few years i never funded my turnkey forex account after talking with trader that got rip off by them.

10:32am off to bed been up all night

I enjoy trading Crypto pairs so it is a must for me tbh
